The Saskatoon Zoo Society is a non-profit environmental education organization that exists to provide educational opportunities based around the wildlife at the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park and Zoo.Each year we conduct over 400 environmental education programs to schools and interest groups in Saskatoon and surrounding area. We are funded by cost recovery on our programs, grants, and donations, our membership programs, funds raised by Paws Inn Concession and Gift Shop, and our Adopt-a-Critter Program.
Our Outreach Programs run between October and April each year. In these exciting programs, Zoo Society teachers or interpreters visit your classroom with a live animal from the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park and Zoo or biological artifacts (biofacts) from our collection.Adopt-a-CritterEveryone is welcome to symbolically adopt- a- critter.

Welcome to Scales Nature Park!The Best Canadian Reptile ExperienceScales Nature Park is an education and conservation facility focused on Canadian reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Our nature centre features the largest live collection of Canadian reptiles and amphibians, providing unparalleled opportunities for learning these creatures. Visitors have a chance to touch or hold some of them, and most people try it out! We provide on-site and outreach programming for groups such as schools, camps, and birthday parties, as well as advanced workshops on specialized topics.While most people come for the animals in the centre (it's a great rainy day activity!), the park itself features 3.5 km of nature trails through a variety of habitats such as forest and wetland. for information the following:Note: scalesnaturepark.ca is currently being upgraded so please bear with our temporary site.
We are a volunteer driven non-profit organization dedicated to the survival of rare and endangered species. We are also involved in humane wildlife rescue and rehabilitation of animals involved in public concerns, and as always, we provide a safe haven for unwanted, abused and injured exotic and zoo surplus animals.
